In the summer of 2014, ISIS invaded Iraq’s Nineveh Plain. 120,000 Christians were given the choice of converting to Islam, paying an extortionate “tax” or facing certain death — so they fled in panic, leaving behind their homes and belongings.

For over two years, these victims of war have been living in limbo, displaced in northern Iraq. Stranded in towns and refugee settlements, they cannot go back home.

With your help, CNEWA continues helping these suffering families — and many more in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and beyond — through our network of brave religious sisters, priests and lay people.
